Blog Tour: Review & Giveaway: Running From Forever by Ashley Wilcox



Recent college graduate, Kayla Reynolds was ready to leave the university, sorority life behind. Leaving her boyfriend of over three years, she packed her bags and moved four hours south to the big city…New York City.  Bright lights, streets that never sleep, and a business lifestyle that she yearned to have were all at her fingertips.

Kayla Reynolds was chasing her dream.

Determined and eager to make it in the corporate world, Kayla changed everything- her image, lifestyle, and outlook on life, putting her career first and her personal life second. That was until her first day, the first time she got a glimpse of Miles Blackwell. Corporate CEO and part owner of ETV, and not to mention, incredibly handsome, Miles Blackwell took Kayla by surprise, stealing her heart as he did.

But nothing had ever come that easy for Kayla. Life had always seemed to have a personal vendetta against her, stepping in when everything seemed too good to be true, reminding herself of whom she really was. It wasn’t until she met Merrick Drake that she realized when to stop; when running was no longer an option. For the first time in her life she had someone she could relate to; someone who wouldn’t judge- who saw the person she was inside. She and Merrick connected…on more levels than one.

When life was too much to handle, they ran.

But there was only one person that could make Kayla stop for good. Only one man that made her want to stay.

Would Kayla finally stop running or would it all be too much to handle?

Review
I’ve been following this series since book 1, so I was very eager to read this story! I was ready to see what made Kayla tick and what Ms. Wilcox had in store for her. I was sucked in from the very beginning and couldn’t put the book down until I was done! Of course, silly things like life & work got in the way, but that didn’t stop me. I found myself reading any chance I got.

Kayla is a very complex girl. On the surface, she appears to be your typical recent college grad that expects the world to be handed to her. But she is so much more than that. Her life hasn’t been easy, so she has overcome a lot in her short life. Kayla is the type that has overcome a lot of obstacles and it seems that they just keep coming her way.

Then there is Merrick and he is sweet, dreamy, and all kinds off limits. The making of a perfect guy, for sure. I wanted to punch him several times for getting bossy with her, but then he’d be so sweet and perfect that I had to refrain.

Overall, I really enjoyed this story! Like I said, right from the beginning, I was sucked in and didn’t want to put it down. I cannot wait to see what Ashley Wilcox has in store for us next!

About the Author


Some may consider me a jack of all trades, but I consider myself well rounded.I’ve waitressed, styled hair, answered phones and, most recently, worked full time as mom to my two beautiful little boys.Then there was this book Everyone and their brother started talking about this book series titled Fifty Shades of Grey by EL James. I didn’t really pay attention to the craze at first, since I wasn’t a big reader- okay, I didn’t read at all. But curiosity got the best of me, so I downloaded it to my kindle.I was immediately hooked. I read the whole series in three days. Yes, three books in three days.I kept finding all these great books that I HAD to read (just ask my credit card!).Then I started hearing voices. Voices that turned into stories; stories that were begging to get out of my head.I started writing them down on scraps of paper. Then I transferred them to my computer. Before I knew it, Planning on Forever was born.The voices in my head are still talking, so Im still writing.
